As of right now cment77. The Xbox One X Has an issue still where it will forget that you are connected after days of activity. Randomly you will get online and find out that you are no longer connected to wired or wireless internet. On the phone it shows connection, but if you check in network setup on the Xbox for wireless, it will act as if the network doesn't exist. Unplugging the xbox one and plugging it back in after pressing the power button. Proves that something internally is wrong with the X as far as I can see.

Agreed. I don't have these connection issues with my PS4 Pro or Switch. I'm wondering if the consensus is that this is a hardware issue or a software issue? From what I've been reading I'm feeling like its a hardware issue. Thoughts?
- Osiris_BlackAug 28, 2018StarI'd speculate that it's the Hardware in the One X. The X is a great and powerful machine but everything is crammed inside the compact box. Hardware usually, if at fault, can cause these intermittent issues, However, Software if bugged, can forget what it's doing and I would have stated that the latest update to xbox fixed this issue, but now you have this issue. Mine has now lasted 3 weeks without issue, (knock on wood), wired. I have it set to energy saving so it shuts down completely.

I would make contact with MS support and ask about this. Let then know what you have, what you tried, both connections and that other devices work with this router. MS should and needs to review this.
Curious, has Instant ON feature been disabled on the game consoles?
- Netduma-FraserAug 29, 2018NetDuma PartnerIf instant on is disabled and automatic updates are disabled then it should resolve the issue. We're in touch with the Xbox team regarding a fix for this.

I have no issues with my Xbox One X or Xbox One S using the 'Instant On' setting. Both are wired (connection).
